After its best year ever in 2008, the world solar market struggled to survive
a tumultuous 2009. What looked like a yawning drop for the photovoltaic (PV)
market in the first half of the year turned into a solid gain in total amount
of systems installed on the strength of strong German sales in the fourth
quarter. But despite annual worldwide PV installations rising from 5.8 GW in
2008 to 6.6 GW in 2009, the PV market value dropped by 15.8% to $17.0 billion
due to crashing PV cell and module prices.

The U.S. fared better than most countries, with the PV market up an estimated
6.0% in 2009 to $3.5 billion and PV installations rising to 469 MW. An
extension of the solar tax credit and new recovery act funding helped to keep
the U.S. PV market on a continuing upward trend.

The U.S. represented only 1% of a world solar thermal collector market
dominated by China in 2009, shipping 1.0 GW of collectors worth $79.6 million.
While still currently focused on low temperature pool heating systems that
represented 82% of the U.S. market (by megawatts of collectors shipped) in
2009, SBI Energy anticipates much stronger growth in residential hot water
systems heading to 2014.

Worldwide, the U.S. still has the greatest potential to increase its position
in the solar market. SBI Energy foresees 900 MW of PV installations in 2010,
rising to 7,600 MW of PV installations in 2014 building on renewed interest in
solar from utilities and the extension of the solar tax credit. While the ST
market will show only moderate growth in the U.S., the PV market segment will
continue to shine in the U.S. and the concentrated solar power (CSP) market is
set to explode. SBI Energy estimates the U.S. solar panel market will reach
$34.5 billion in 2014.

U.S. Solar Energy Market World Data, 2nd Edition by SBI Energy analyzes the
manufacturing and sales of the U.S. solar photovoltaic and solar thermal
markets within the context of other key solar countries such as the Germany,
Spain, Japan and China. The analysis will include definitions, current product
offerings and market detail on the following segments:

Photovoltaic cells and modules

Vacuum tube and flat-panel solar thermal modules

Balance of system components including inverters, frames, batteries and
charge controllers
